Up State Men Fight Tammany For McAdoo Nomination
Upstate New York delegates led by Mayor George R. Lunn work to rally support for William G. McAdoo at the Democratic National Convention in San Francisco. They seek to break the unit rule and secure twenty votes, hoping to thwart Wilson and position Smith for a first ballot compliment. Some delegates, including Michael J. Walsh, show sympathy with the McAdoo drive while others fear Wilson’s dominance. Governors Alfred E. Smith and James E. Cox likely receive complimentary votes on the first ballot as the delegation heads uninstructed.
